Winter Track Survey of the Amur Tiger (Panthera tigris altaica) in the Southwest Primorsky Province of Russia 俄罗斯滨海边疆区西南部东北虎 (Panthera tigris altaica) 冬季足迹调查

Wildlife Letters, EarlyView.
In the winter of 2021/2022, a winter track survey revealed 43–46 tigers (without cubs) in 5.4 thousand km2 of suitable habitats in the Southwest Primorsky Province of Russia. In the same period, a network of camera traps registered 54 adult/subadult tigers here.

A Case Report on Rehabilitation of the Asiatic Black Bear (Ursus thibetanus ussuricus) in the Wild 亚洲黑熊 (Ursus thibetanus ussuricus) 野外放归野化案例报告

Wildlife Letters, EarlyView.
Asiatic black bears in Russia face conservation threats such as habitat destruction and fragmentation, which exacerbate food shortages caused by crop failures. This study explores an innovative approach to rehabilitating bears that abandon hibernation in mid‐winter due to extreme exhaustion by providing supplemental food near their den sites.

Nesting ecology of an ice‐associated seabird, Kittlitz's murrelet, at the northern edge of its range

Wildlife Society Bulletin, EarlyView.
We studied the Kittlitz's murrelet, an ice‐associated seabird of conservation concern, at the northern edge of its range. Over a 2‐year period, we estimated nest density and success at 2 sites, captured and telemetered nesting murrelets, and tested the use of a thermal camera to improve nest detection.

Developing a low‐cost drone‐based method for deploying and retrieving autonomous recording units in inaccessible areas

Wildlife Society Bulletin, EarlyView.
Autonomous recording units (ARUs) are increasingly used for passive acoustic monitoring, but deploying them in remote or inaccessible locations remains challenging. We developed and field‐tested a lightweight, low‐cost floating platform for drone‐assisted deployment and retrieval of ARUs in wetland interiors.

Convergent‐beam X‐ray crystallography

Journal of Applied Crystallography, EarlyView.
Molecular crystal diffraction with a highly focused X‐ray beam decouples crystal morphology and molecular structure by measuring magnified topographs from every reflection.Molecular and polymeric crystals show a wide range of functional properties that arise from the interplay between the atomic‐scale structure of their constituent molecules and the ...

In situ mapping of iron oxidation in laminar metal fuel flames using X‐ray absorption spectroscopy

Journal of Synchrotron Radiation, EarlyView.
For the first time an iron metal flame has been mapped by in situ X‐ray absorption spectroscopy. Strong gradients in oxidation state and phase composition across the metallic core and the flame front were found with FeO peaking at the visible flame front and Fe3O4 forming further beyond.Metal fuels such as iron are promising carbon‐free energy carriers

Social network dynamics under experimental manipulations of predation risk and food abundance in wild rock hyraxes

Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
This study combines replicated experimental manipulation, social network analysis, network permutations and meta‐analysis to disentangle active from spatially‐induced changes in animal network structure in the wild. It reveals that short‐term environmental changes primarily alter space use, with limited effects on social structure.

The Focal v Control Test: Dealing With P‐hacking Concerns in Meta‐analytical Research

British Journal of Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT While overwhelming consensus exists that p‐hacking practices trouble management literature, the issue remains largely undiscussed in meta‐analytical research. This is surprising, since meta‐analyses traditionally deal with these types of systematic biases.

A perspective way for judging tunnel approach zones by cognitive-behavioral chains and predictive processing model

Underground Space
In tunnel approach zones (TAZs), drivers must complete a sequence of tasks, including detecting the tunnel, identifying speed limits, and decelerating to enter safely.

And then there was us Et puis nous sommes apparus

Journal of the Royal Anthropological Institute, EarlyView.
In 1987, the academic conference ‘Origins and Dispersals of Modern Humans: Behavioural and Biological Perspectives’ was held in Cambridge, UK. Subsequently referred to as the ‘Human Revolution’ conference, this meeting brought together the most prominent academics working in the field of human origins, including archaeologists and palaeoanthropologists,
